    Can anyone out there confirm the date for National Stout Day this year? All I can find online is past years dates, not so helpful. If anyone is in the CT area, I'm in the process of planning a pretty epic lineup to celebrate the day at Prime 16 Orange...

    International Stout Day is November 5, 2015. I plan to break out a few special stouts too!

    Since it's just a made up holiday, why not pick a day and share it on here and most of us will take you on your word and turn up a stout without hesitation.

    Thank you! I couldn't even find it posted anywhere on BeerAdvocate and thought I was losing it

    Count me in. Any reason is always a good reason to enjoy a stout. No arm twisting necessary.

    National Stout Day may be in November but the best day for Stouts in this area is Stoutfest at Armsby Abbey in April every year!

    First IPA day and now Stout day. The styles least in need of hype get made-up days.

    I am NOT bad mouthing the styles - they are my two favorite ones to be truthful.

    But, I suppose that is my point: I don't think many of us need much nudging to drink either IPAs or stouts. Why not declare a Doppelbock Day or a Brown Ale day?

    Love Stouts too but the made up holiday allows bars around me to supplant the Pale Ales with stouts for a day.

    Listen, i strongly dislike the made up holidays myself. I'm usually scrambling to throw something together for IPA Day because I always forget. But… you gotta keep the masses happy in the restaurant business. So if calling it "Stout Day" means a whole bunch more people will show up at my bar if I tap some extra awesome beers, I'm doing it.

    Our local gets a special tasting together for these days. A great way to explore the style. I could have one every week.
